  1. Okay…Let me get this straight: There are “tens of thousands” of members of Hamas (all, Gazans)…All of these “tens of thousands” of Hamas Gazans have mothers, fathers & LOTS of siblings (all of whom, presumably, know they’re in Hamas & support them)…. That surely must constitute at LEAST 1/2 million - 1 million Gazans—out of a population of 2 million—so how “innocent,” exactly, are most Gazans??

  2. Because that’s the games HAMAS plays…

  3. @@tesuparman Not what I said. The IDF says that HAMAS has “tens of thousands of members” in Gaza. Hamas says they have “hundreds of thousands” in Gaza. Treating Hamas’ claim as numbers inflation, I’m going with the IDF numbers: “tens of thousands “ (let’s say, “40,000”) The average Gazan family has 6.9 - 7.3 members (again, depending on sources—I’ll go with “7” )….Seven X 40,000 = 280,000 (and that’s not including these members’ friends, grandparents, etc — most of whom, presumably, would be aware of their terrorists membership )….The point is: That’s a fairly hefty % of Gazan residents ( and your saying, “That doesn’t make them complicit” is kinda ….lame. How MANY “friends” do you have who are terrorists that butcher little kids)? And I know Gaza quite well. I worked there for 4 months with Médecin Sans Frontières in 2020
